Really enjoyed the Danca Das Gaivotas album by Jose Rogerio but this one is even better in my books. The ambient O Farol e a Mariposa is a true beauty and the vocal piece Carregamento makes you wonder why Jose did not...

Saba 'Tree Label' sixties original with the wonderful jazzy Bossa Novissima that is exclusive to this release. Some other good guitar picking by Hans Haider and Ingo Werther but the former stand out. Very rare origina...

Obviously a different style to his seventies recordings but I do like the jazz fused boogie dancer Dream Hunter and his big hitter Carneval. US original in clean EX condition, cover with cut out and light miscolouring...

Such an underrated record with the fantastic club friendly Misturada and Tiro Cruzado plus the blissful cover of Jobim's Waters Of March. Solid VG+ copy with light wear only, cover and labels has radio station sticker...

With a cover like this and an late 80s recording date you kind of know the direction. Nice drumbreak on Ode E Adao and a good instrumental track called Fogo but unfortunately not as good as his earlier records.

Roupa Nova are hugely popular in Brazil and desite being a bit popish at times some of their tracks have a soulful feel. Bem Simples is a fine mellow piece and I really dig the vocal harmonies on Cancao De Verao. Rare...

Funky affair by the wonderful 'Forro' singer songwriter. One of her best with Essa Alegria, Chego Ja and Amor Com Cafe all great for playing out. Nice jazzy instrumentations on this one. Brazilian original in decent V...

Jorge Ben is such a talent, be it his early 60s Afro-Brasileiro and Bossa Novas or these later 'cosmic' tinged Brazil beats he always come through. Nice boogie vibes on Sasaci Perere but check Danca Que Isso E Sambafo...

Mexican superstar Ray Tico travels Brazil and gets busy with big classics in Bahia, Desafinado, Orfeo Negro and much more. Check his own composition Beckie for a feel of the vibes. Sixties deep groove pressing with so...
